    FAQ

    Common questions

    • What is term life insurance?

      Term life insurance provides coverage for a specific period (or "term") — typically 10, 15, 20, or 30 years. If you pass away during that term, your beneficiaries receive a tax-free death benefit. It's the most affordable type of life insurance and the most straightforward.

    • How much coverage do I need?

      A common rule of thumb is 10–12 times your annual income. But it depends on your situation — consider your mortgage, debts, childcare costs, and how many years your family would need support. Our calculator can help you find the right amount.

    • Do I really not need a medical exam?

      Most applicants qualify for coverage without a medical exam. We use data-driven underwriting to assess your health based on a few simple questions. Some higher coverage amounts may require additional health information.

    • Can I cancel my policy?

      Yes, you can cancel your policy at any time with no penalties or cancellation fees. You also get a 30-day free look period after your policy is issued — if you change your mind, you'll get a full refund.

    • How fast can I get covered?

      Many applicants receive an instant decision and can have coverage in place the same day they apply. The entire process takes about 5 minutes from start to finish.

    • Will my rate ever increase?

      No. Your rate is locked in for the entire length of your term. If you choose a 20-year term, you'll pay the same amount every month for all 20 years.

    Your family deserves peace of mind.
